   Maybe it’s for the llm tool use PATH? That was the most plausible reason to even mention it, that I could think of.

   So, is it like colinux[0], but for pre-NT windows? Neat! Back when I was still using windows (probably XP era), I used to run colinux, it was kind of amazing, setting up something like LAMP stack on the linux side was a lot easier and then

   Heh, in Finnish it is often called “miuku mauku”, almost like “meow meow”, or perhaps “meowdy meowdi”. Didn’t see any other cat-themed nick names.

    I've occasionally pondered, how feasible would it be to write a APFS implementation just from the specs[0] alone. Is it harder or easier to create the implementation when you have a provided layout and mechanism how it works. Would it

    While technically true, f.ex. Finland has stopped all mail shipments[0]. I guess the airlines were not set up to dealing with the hassle of making sure all the shipments are “allowed”. Or maybe just lazy, dunno really. [0] https:/&#x2

    Probably mentioned on every teletext related submission, but the Finland's public broadcaster YLE still has an avid teletext userbase, if not through a proper TV, then through the website [0] (and there are mobile apps for that too). S

    The original edit.com, from around dos 6.22 (and later 7.0, ie. win95) was my first IDE. Well, I started with qbasic, so I was fairly familiar with it as it was similar (or same?), but when I started learning C/C++ with djgpp, I just c

    Hrm. I think I had few OS/2 boxes amongst some old games I took to sell to a video game antiquarian, and I think I left it there but they didn't seem interested in them. Frankly I don't remember which language they were, eith

    Is the term "Barrel file" somehow in common use? I've never heard of it (not a js dev though). I would expect some kind of "umbrella file", "public interface", "reexport facade", or something alo
